That moment

I've had a moment...one of those where I want to shoot myself... I've been messaging Michelle today and asked if I can see her for 5mins when she's free. My friends and I was out in the City around that time so I asked Michelle to meet up at the Casino at 8pm, since that is when she finishes her yoga class...my phone was nearly flat of juice and wasn't in the best of areas for reception. 8pm came, I was waiting but Michelle didn't turn up...no text...no call...by 8.29pm I left the Casino...two messages came at once...one saying Mitchell was heading over from Yoga...second one...she left because I wasn't there...and she needed to go home. It's my fault for not being clear...cocked up what could of been something.

Some of the people I'll miss

My chief instructor, Sensei Whyte, in the all black suit, my second instructor, Sensei McGregor with the blue top, Kevin, with the cap, my sempei and 3rd in line for the school and Diane, also my sempei, one of only two female sempei that I'll acknowledge. Miss the school doesn't begin to describe the hole it'll leave...I've been with them for 12 years. 12 very fun, interesting, intense, hard, bruised and well spent years. I look forward to the day I can return.  Farewell for now everyone, train hard.

Today :)

I'd just like to blog about today which has been rather good! Got up a bit earlier than usual...did my warm up exercises and then got a call from my Aunt Kitty, pop up to work early, your Aunt Ying came round! Off I went to work early, had a good banter, steak for (late) lunch and Aunt Ying left us some good old Hakka Cha Gor!! As we closed up the shop, I made stuffed chillies with minced pork...aunt Kitty doesn't usually eat spicy foods but wanted to try them! "Oh!!! They are good! Not spicy and i can totally eat them!" Two minutes later you saw a mad woman running around the shop trying to cool off her lips because they were burning! All you saw of me was, some guy laughing his head off whilst desperately trying not to spit out the food in his mouth! Damn i'm going to miss these people when I leave for Edinburgh!

Moving...is it the right direction?

It's not officially confirmed but I'll be moving to the Capital of Scotland, Edinburgh by the end of this month. Change will build character yet I wonder if I am heading in the right direction... Cathy hasn't given me a proper reply as such...in a way, she's played a part in my decision to move. Its weird, I never had a problem with going away but why now? Am I too comfortable in the zone I'm in?               ************************ Upon a bit of thinking...I've got a property that I take rent from...I still live at home with my comforts...fuck a duck...I don't have a proper income or my own pad to crash at.... Decision made...moving! Financial stability first....girlfriend....later! (Would be nice if they both came to me soon but life doesn't give this shit out) Edinburgh, say Hello to this Bastard!
